[ovs-dev] make install error for 0.90.7: tic: Can't open ./extras/ezio/ezio3.ti

hi all,

extras/ezio/ezio3.ti is not in the 0.90.7 tarball. This makes the install fail:

make  install-data-hook
make[3]: Entering directory `/share/tmp/openvswitch-0.90.7'
tic -x ./extras/ezio/ezio3.ti
tic: Can't open ./extras/ezio/ezio3.ti
-----------------------------------------------------------
Failed to install ezio3 terminfo file.  The ezio-term
program will not work until it has been installed.
Probably, you need to install the 'tic' program from
ncurses, e.g. using a command like:
  apt-get install ncurses-bin
and then re-run "make install"

make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/share/tmp/openvswitch-0.90.7'

After I copy extras/ezio/ezio3.ti from Git tree, the installation success.

Is it due to my build environment (RHEL5.4 x86, with updated pcre), or a bug in
the 0.90.7 tarball?

thanks,
